This is a move that the Italian team hopes will ward off interest from Liverpool, PSG, and Real Madrid. The Brazilian shot-stopper is believed to be one of Liverpool’s top summer targets, with Karius and Mignolet fumbling between the posts.

The 25-year-old is having an impressive season with Roma. The Italian giants are now working on a new deal, which would also see his current salary go up.

Real Madrid and PSG would have no problem though. £80 million is like change to these two, considering they have already proved they can shake up the market.
